You can make friends in a new city as an adult male, you just have to actually put in some effort. Granted, I just moved to a new city that is very lively and social (ATX). I went out by myself on NYE and attended a meetup mixer at a bar and quickly realized that there are plenty of people like myself trying to make…

That's seriously impressive lightness for a modern 4-door. A 4-foor E36 weighs around 31xx lbs.

I had a rental Compass and it was fairly terrible. Though I managed to make it oversteer by accident once. Not sure if I should be impressed with it or myself.

There seems to be some stigma against drifters at a lot of track events. Track junkies and autocrossers don't really welcome them with open arms. Just my observation.

You can't go wrong with an FRS but I have to point out that an M3 guy can also laugh at a friend who just bought an old Countach for spending $10k in repairs for the first 1k miles he drove, but a Countach is a Countach, an M3 is an M3 and an FRS will be an FRS. If you don't see what I'm getting at, don't worry about…

Thing is, our opinions for a brand is often directed by the first car we own from that brand. I had a horrible time with a Mercedes and hated Mercedes for years (but now I've been thinking about reacquainting myself with an AMG). My first BMW was brilliant and solid so I fell in love with BMW. In short, don't always…

Anything under 45 degrees I call oversteer weather.

What if he works for law enforcement? Just a wild thought.

I should double check this but I don't think M cars have CDV. I know the E39 M5 does not while all other E39s do.

I feel like you're asking too much of it. It's a $50k GT car. A 911 is in a league above. The cheapest 911s start around $80k. For what it is, the E46 M3 is a very good all around car.

I'm a Blood Orange fan but it seems that no one really knows about him. Good stuff Matt.

God are none of you still children at heart? I grew up playing NFS in the 90s and even though I'm now a bit of a film buff, I couldn't give less shits if this movie has a storyline at all. Blowing up Koenigigigissessesseggs? Yes!!

In fact, I actually prefer the classier yellow-ish tone of the stock angel eyes vs. ultra white aftermarket bulbs people stick in their E39s. I've kept my angel eyes bone stock and I love it.

Oh god here we go. You're that guy who believes Photoshop is for shitty photographers aren't you?

In reality, everyone wanted a picture of Patrick. Nobody actually cared for the car.

The widowmaker character of this car actually makes it more appealing to me. I'd love to drive this car.

Uhh that doesn't look bad at all. There are much worse Chinese crash test examples.

Will it be at the Four Seasons again tonight? :)

I don't know man, car is not touching the ground, tires aren't stretched to dangerous levels and camber doesn't exceed -20 degrees.
